So you can't. I have seen the ending and I really don't understand what are you talking about. Tidus was not real and Auron was already dead? Or is there something I am missing.

The part with Yuna was tragic, basically what the ending was about. If you still don't understand what I'm talking about you should just let it go, but I'm sure you'll keep on nagging me with "what part was tragic with Yuna"


This isnt just Square though, its the entire Japanese market. and i as a fan off the games this gen from Japan blame the US and there stupid idea that they must rule the world.

Final Fantasy XIII was loved by some but hated by many more, Final Fantasy XIV was an unequivocal disaster, and many of Square's other decisions are totally baffling. Why make a sequel to FFXIII, a game that sold well but may have irrevocably damaged this brand forever?
So what's next for Final Fantasy? On the horizon we have Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, a game that continues a story that nobody really cares about. There's Final Fantasy Versus XIII, a game that may or may not actually exist. And then what? Does anybody really trust Square Enix to make another great console RPG? Why does the thought of a Final Fantasy XV fill me with more dread than excitement? I don't know what the next generation will bring for Final Fantasy, a series I could once rank among my favorite. And nothing will ever diminish or erase my fond memories of sneaking through South Figaro to figure out what the Empire is planning, fighting my way to the moon to take down Zeromus, and getting the CROWN to trade for the HERB to trade for the CRYSTAL to get the KEY to find the TNT that will let me explore the world. Even today, I can replay old Final Fantasy games and have a blast doing it. But it's time for fans like you and me to accept that Final Fantasy isn't Final Fantasy anymore. The series we once knew and loved is never coming back. |

I'm tired of this. Can't people like this guy understand that Final Fantasy has never drastically changed. PEOPLE change! He and the "many more" who hated FFXIII are just no longer receptive at what FF delivers. And damn if people think that FF/JRPGs "they were better before", they just damn take their time machine and return "before", but they let others enjoy current JRPGs. The 2 million + people who purchased FFXIII-2 despite FF being "irrevocably damaged" aren't exactly "nobody". Quite a few people here and of other French sites I know, including me, do care about Lightning Returns despite so-called professional writers already assuming it is gonna be a poor game.
That said, I share his astonishment on All the Bravest : paid phoenix downs!? Now that's a rip off...

Of course you're not going to feel anything. You didn't experience the game yourself.
That's like showing me two random people die in a movie I didn't watch. I wouldn't give two shits about them whereas people who watched the whole 2 hour movie leading up to their death would probably cry.
Your argument makes zero sense to me.

That’s really quite a sad realisation. Final Fantasy – the massive JRPG franchise has fallen from grace so much it’s actually hit rock bottom (I hope), surely it can’t get any worse. I don’t have that long of a history playing Final Fantasy games but I distinctly remember the huge fuss about FF7 & 8 back in the day. I only really started playing the remakes on PSP and DS but enjoyed all of them – it’s sad to think this is where such a distinctive franchise is at. Hopefully Square Enix can pull something good out of the bag over the next few years, I’d hate to see such a big franchise completely go to the dogs.
And worringly it's not just Square Enix – one of my childhood favourites (Theme Park) has done something very similar, just pay to win basically, no challenge and a massive sense of being ripped off.
This is why I really dislike smart phones…

What makes you think that I have not played the game? Did I say that or what?

So if that is the definition of tragic, most games are tragic. Think of the poor mushrooms in mario games for example...
